DETROIT -- Miguel Cabrera signed a record-breaking contract with the Detroit Tigers last week -- one that will make him the highest-paid athlete in professional sports history.

On Monday, a report surfaced that disclosed specifics of Cabrera's colossal contract.

Cabrera is due $44 million over the final two years of his eight-year, $152.3 million contract that runs through 2015. He will then reportedly receive a significant raise, as part of the new eight-year extension, which is slightly backloaded.

According to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman, Cabrera will make $28 million in 2016 and 2017 before receiving a marginal bump to $30 million per season between 2018 and 2021. In 2022 and 2023, Cabrera will receive another slight raise and earn $32 million per season, totaling $248 million over eight years.

Cabrera also has the opportunity to make an additional $60 million combined with two vesting options for the 2024 and 2025 seasons. The options will vest if he finishes in the top 10 of the American League Most Valuable Player voting in 2023 and 2024. However, according to Heyman, the options can be bought out by the club for $8 million.

The newly signed eight-year extension will pay Cabrera an average of $31 million per season, breaking the previous salary record on a per-season basis, held by Clayton Kershaw at $30 million.

In all, Cabrera could be under contract for 12 years for a total sum that could exceed $352 million as the agreement also reportedly includes performance and awards bonuses.
